Gut Check

Unleash the Power of Your Microbiome to Reverse Disease and Transform Your Mental, Physical, and Emotional Health

By: Steven R. Gundry MD

Narrated by: Steven R. Gundry MD

In this groundbreaking addition to his New York Times bestselling Plant Paradox series, Steven R.Gundry, MD offers a definitive guide to the gut biome and its control over its home—us!—revealing the unimaginably complex and intelligent ecosystem controlling our health and teaching us how to heal our guts to prevent and reverse every type of disease.

We may believe that we are the masters of our fates, but in reality, we are at the mercy of hundreds of trillions of single-celled organisms that exert control over every aspect of how our minds and bodies function. These are the diverse species of microbes living in our guts, mouths, and skin that work together synergistically to communicate with each other and with every system in our bodies. You are your microbiome’s home, and it wants to take care of you, but first you have to protect it.

In Gut Check, Dr. Steven Gundry reveals the emerging science proving that Hippocrates was right – all disease begins in the gut. When our microbiomes are out of balance, it affects our immune systems, our hormone levels, our mental health, our longevity, and our risk of developing autoimmunity, heart, and neurodegenerative disease, as well as arthritis, diabetes, and cancer. Yet, not all hope is lost: disease can also be healed in the gut if we choose to treat our microbes right. In Gut Check, Dr. Gundry shows us how.

In his warm, authoritative voice, Dr. Gundry provides us with the keys to unlocking our gut health, allowing our bodies, and its microbiome, to function at their highest potential. Sharing shocking new research as well as a detailed eating plan with food lists and recipes to heal and rebalance the microbiome, Gut Check provides the cutting-edge information and tools we need to repair our health and reclaim our lives.

Growing with Dr. G!

Since changing my life with the Plant Paradox program, I’ve enjoyed growing with Dr. G as he continues to grow n his research. The experience and information he provides continues to benefit my health, wellness and longevity!

I fell in love with my gut buddies now.

I just listened to this audiobook and found it to be very informative. It provided me with a lot of useful information on topics such as prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics, as well as the implications of leaky gut. I was particularly fascinated by the section on how the bacteria in our gut can influence our brain and behavior. Overall, I believe that this audiobook is a valuable resource for anyone looking to learn more about gut health and its impact on overall well-being.

New information

I always enjoy the strict science behind these books. There is new information in this one. Delving incredibly deep and thorough into this subject. Surprising info added per usual. Now, how do I get my children to respond? Many, many people don’t care or are short sighted about their health. They say they want to die young. You get old young when you’re unhealthy, am i right? Oh well.

Change your gut health

Great resources for changing your gut health, and overall health. Either a must read, or must listen to change your health.

Level of detail intense

Smooth deliver and helped when I read along. I love how Dr G changes as research come to light.
